It's Valentine's Day. Where are your kids?

Honestly, my blog post title makes no sense. Just ignore it. ;)

Valentine's Day has rolled around, and I totally pulled off the "I didn't forget Valentine's Day ... I'm totally surprising you!" bit. Although now that this is posted on here, that illusion is probably killed now.

The kidlet is at her gramma's for the weekend, the apartment is (mostly) unpacked, and steaks are marinating in the fridge. 

Tonight's dinner will be steak marinaded in fig balsamic vinegar, fresh bread lightly toasted in a frying pan with herbs and olive oil, long-grain brown rice and a tossed spinach salad with carrots, cauliflower and broccoli.

Photos to follow!

What are Zach and I doing on our kidless day together? Watching "Sexiest Men Ever" on the TV Guide channel, of course. We seriously need some help.

Tomorrow is a No Newspaper Day, which means it's a Tara Sits on Her Duff and Does Nothing Day. Yaaaaaaay!

Actually, I finally got the book "Killed: Great Journalism Too Hot to Print," so I'll be digging into that gem tomorrow. I've got "Libertarianism: A Primer" by David Boaz on the back burner. I'm pretty stoked about that book, too.
